New cards
What is the relationship between acid strength and pKa?
the stronger the acid, the smaller the pKa
2
New cards
What is the relationship between base strength and pKb?
the stronger the base, the smaller the pKb
3
New cards
characterstics of neutral solution
concentrations of H+ and OH- are same, \[H+\]=1x10^-7, pH=7
4
New cards
characterstics of acidic solution
concentrations of H+ greater than OH-, \[H+\]>1x10^-7, pH
5
New cards
characteristics of basic solution
concentrations of H+ less than OH-, \[H+\]
6
New cards
How are pKa and pKb related?
at 25c pKa + pKb = 14
7
New cards
How do you find concentration of \[OH-\]?
pOH=-log(OH-)
8
New cards
How do you find concentration of \[H+\]?
pH=-log(H+)
9
New cards
What is percent ionization? What is the trend?
\[H+\]/\[HA\]x100, at lower concentrations weak acids can become fully ionized because weak acidity means theres more reactant, so it will shift to products, so more ions
